VARIABLE GRILLE APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18372436 titled 'VARIABLE GRILLE APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The variable grille apparatus described in the patent application allows for the adjustment of the flow rate of air flowing through a grille, improving merchantability. By diversifying the opening/closing operation of the grille, such as sequentially or simultaneously operating the operation, the exterior design can be enhanced, and the flow rate of air can be optimized through structural arrangement.

  • The variable grille apparatus can adjust the flow rate of air flowing through a grille.
  • The apparatus can upgrade the opening/closing operation when adjusting the flow rate of air.
  • Diversifying the opening/closing operation of the grille can improve the exterior design and optimize the flow rate of air.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in HVAC systems, automotive air vents, industrial ventilation systems, and building air circulation systems.

Problems Solved

The technology solves the problem of inefficient air flow control in grilles, limited exterior design options, and suboptimal structural arrangements affecting air flow.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved air flow control, enhanced exterior design possibilities, and optimized structural arrangements for better air flow efficiency.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include HVAC system manufacturers, automotive industry suppliers, industrial ventilation system providers, and building construction companies.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be traditional fixed grilles with limited airflow control options and design variations.

Unanswered Questions

How does the variable grille apparatus compare to traditional fixed grilles in terms of energy efficiency?

The variable grille apparatus allows for more precise control of air flow, potentially leading to improved energy efficiency compared to traditional fixed grilles.

What materials are typically used in the construction of the variable grille apparatus?

The materials used in the construction of the variable grille apparatus may vary but are likely to include durable and lightweight materials such as aluminum or plastic.


Original Abstract Submitted

A variable grille apparatus can adjust a flow rate of air flowing through a grille and upgrade an opening/closing operation when adjusting the flow rate of the air, thereby improving merchantability. In addition, by diversifying the opening/closing operation of the grille such as sequentially operating or simultaneously operating the opening/closing operation of the grille, it is possible to upgrade the opening/closing operation of the grille, diversify the exterior design, and secure the flow rate of air through the optimization of the structural arrangement.
